Sofia turned off her phone after contacting Nukid. She sighed as she looked towards Nukids group, the Hunters, who were currently sitting in around an alley way

'This fucking blows! I have to sit here and wait as that little prick Nukid gets to have all the fun! Fuck!' Travis Touchdown cursed, bored and pissed

'You heard the Darkside Travis, only the authors could go to their fights, or else the Zodiacs would kill the hostages, but….can Nukid handle it on his own?! That Yamazaru beats him whenever they fight!' Sofia stated, worry in her tone

'Don't worry! Nukid's not the type of guy to let anyone beat him. I'm sure he can pull it off!' Rose assured

'Yea…..besides he should be okay right? He took the Life Aura Roscoso gave him, and he ate the Devil Fruit I gave him! Right?' Sofia asked the group

All the Hunters however fidgeted uncomfortably. Vash then stood up from the cardboard box he sat on, and walked up to Sofia, patting her shoulders

'Sofia, Nukid gave me these before he left. He said he didn't need them' Vash said, rummaging through his pockets. When he took the items out, Sofia gasped from shock

In Vash's hands, were the Devil Fruit, and the Life Aura……

Nukid kept on walking through the town of Nanimori, following the signal on his tracking device. He was no longer in a shopping district, and instead found himself in a housing area

'The signals coming from this area! This could be a pain. I don't what annoying civilians getting in the way!' Nukid grumbled as he kept on walking down the street. Suddenly, his mobile phone began to rumble in his pocket, someone was calling. Nukid sighed, and answered the phone

'Hey, whoever this is, can you call back later? I'm sorta in the middle of somethi…'

'NUKID YOU BLOODY IDIOT!! ARE YOU RETARDED?!' Sofia's high pitched scream went through Nukids ear, and rattled his whole brain!

'Ow! So…Sofia? What the hell did I do this time to piss you off huh?' Nukid asked in his usual grumpy tone

'You stupid prick!! Vash has just told me! Not only did you leave that Life Aura thing behind, you forgot to eat the Devil Fruit! How could do something so irresponsible and forget about them?'

'Sofia, I didn't forget either of them. I left them behind on purpose' Nukid revealed, seriousness in his voice

'W..what? But why? Those things would've made you stronger! You could win with them!' Sofia asked in confusion

'No Sofia. If I used them I wouldn't be getting stronger. If I ate that devil fruit, then I wouldn't have earned the power, and the Life Aura, well that's not only my own power! I don't need things like that to win my fights!' Nukid boasted

'I..I guess, I just….don't want to see you die! It's my fault you got into this situation!' Sofia stated

'Your fault?....Well yea it's completely your fault! But hey I don't hold it against ya!!' Nukid laughed

'……Thanks. Look maybe if you come back now and take the Fruit and the Aura, you can get back in time for your fight!' Sofia tried to reason

Nukid scoffed 'And go against my motto? Fuck that! I don't use weapons, I don't use powers! If I beat someone, I beat them with my own two fist!….'

Sofia sat on the floor after the call, and thought heavily about the situation. Rose walked up to her and knelt beside her

'You said it was your fault? Why is that?' Rose asked

'You guys….don't know what Nukid did after he betrayed CP9 do you?' Sofia asked

'I figured he did what most Emo's did. He sulked and wrote depressing poetry!' Shego blurted, drinking a can of beer

'No, he joined the Mafia'

Shego literally spat all her drink out on a poor Drakken 'WHAT?!'

'Yep. After me and him left the world of the Grand Line thanks to a sympathetic Balance, I went to study this worlds archaeology, while he joined the Vongola family, the most powerful Gangster family of all' Sofia explained

'W..Why? Didn't he have enough of killing?' Drakken asked

'It's…not that simple for Nukid. He was trained his whole life to kill people! Deep down it's all he really knows'

'It was during this time he met me and Travis. And the guy who the Zodiacs have used to lure Nukid is a member of the Vongola family, Reborn!' Vash explained

'Reborn….the legendary Hitman Reborn!! Nukid knows a monster like him?!' Rose jumped up, fear in her voice. Dark pictures of the massacres that man had caused flowed through everyones minds

'Yes, and that's why Nukids not worried about him. Reborn is on par with people like Alucard and Dante, despite his appearance….' Sofia mumbled the last part

'One question kid. How did you two end up becoming enemies of Drake and his Zodiacs?' Rose asked

'Well…..during my time here, I've studied Darkside history specifically. I discovered the whereabouts of the second stone tablet, and Nukid agreed to protect me while I searched it' Sofia explained

'Wow, he cares that much about you?' Travis asked

'No! He made me pay, the money grabbing bastard! But yea, he helped me find the Stone Tablet from the ruins'

'But….they came didn't they?'

Sofia nodded 'Yes, Yamazaru found us, and tried to take the stone for Drake. Nukid fought him, and gave me time to escape, but he got the crap beaten out of him! And the nearby town……that Darkside, killed the whole town, just because h wanted us two'

'Damn….these Darksides are monsters' Drakken winced

'After this, we became targets. We went into hiding, and I sold the tablet to a museum, but I eventually got found by the Huntsclan. When Nukid found this out, he secretly joined the Huntsclan, and worked within in the group to break me out, and get the stone tablet as well. And then here we are now' Sofia finished explaining

'Well, the stone tablets safe. It's right here!' Travis stated, holding up the 2nd stone tablet

Sofia smiled 'Right! And I know Nukid will come back alive, even without the Aura or the fruit! I hope….'

Nukid finally made it to his location point. He walked closer and closer to a large wasteland of destroyed houses, and sitting on the rubble, was Yamazaru

'Hey, Monkey dick! I'm here!' Nukid called out. Yamazaru looked at him, and stood up

'About time, I was getting bored waiting! If you're worried about the hostages, then don't worry, I let them go a while ago' Yamazaru stated, stretching his body to warm up

'I wasn't worried, Since it was Reborn you were stupid enough to threaten. You're lucky to be alive!' Nukid retorted

Yamazaru huffed 'This'll be the third time we've fought Nukid! Twice you've escaped me, but this time, it will all be settled for good'

'I hope so, I've had it up to hear with you bloody Darksides and those annoying Author Fighters' Nukid grumbled. Yamazaru got into his fighting stance

'Before we start Nukid, maybe you should…..pray to your god!'

'Sorry…' Nukid said, getting into his own stance '….I haven't got a god to pray to'

'Agnostic huh? That's unfortunate. You see I represent the one true god of this world, and his wrath WILL be felt across this world one day!' Yamazaru preached

Nukid grinned 'Fucking bring it on then!'

The two charged at each other….

Sorry for the bogging down with info, but next chap THE FIGHT BEGINS. Stay tuned

And yea, I'm a former Assassin, and a former Gangster. More on that will be developed later on
